Jovani Hernandez The Air Jordan 9 isn’t among the most popular sneaker designs in Michael Jordan’s signature shoe line, but its importance in celebrating #23’s global influence can’t be understated. Tomorrow, the seventh model designed by Tinker Hatfield for M.J. releases in an eye-catching “Chile Red” colorway.
Uppers don the silhouette’s signature quilted panels along the profiles, with mudguards boasting a shiny patent leather finish. Lace loops and tongue labels interrupt the near-uniform ruby-colored ensemble with “Black” contrast. Pull tabs at the heel also indulge in the pitch-dark contrast, as does the tread underfoot (which nods to Jordan’s global superstardom). All together, the upcoming Air Jordan retro delivers a refreshing update to Chicago Bulls-inspired heritage 29 years after the sneaker’s debut.
Enjoy product shots of the pair ahead, courtesy of Sneaker Politics, as you wait to try your luck tomorrow, May 7th, for $200 USD.
